The Football Project, Week 16: For All The Marbles You Don’t Deserve

FINALLY! We’ve made it to Week 16 – the last week of the Fantasy Football season! So, naturally, that’s what this tune is about. Our hero gleefully ignores the holiday party he’s attending (maybe he’s even hosting it!) to keep tabs on his fantasy team because it’s in his league’s championship game. Kind of a jerk move, yes, but what can you do? Well, people try to lure him out in the bridge… to no avail.

Now, the music… The beginning bit is one of the first ideas I came up with when I decided to do this project. Nearly four months later, I finally got to use it! Otherwise, this tune is straight-up pop-punk with a part of “Deck The Halls” in the bridge. It’s public domain, so why not, right? And finally, to put a nice little bow on the proceedings, That’s my brother saying “Nobody cares, Ed. Nobody cares,” at the end of the track. Enjoy this here thingy and I’ll see you next week with the final tune for the regular season.
